Evaluation

Evaluation skill is the best pay skill in business. At our meetings, you will have many opportunities to practice your analytical skills, and give positive feedbacks. It is a fine art that could take one entire lifetime to perfect it.

Table Topic

Members will be invited to do a 2 minutes impromptu speech on a topic they will be given on the spot. This is where we get to squeeze our creative juice. It’s the perfect skill you need to master for any job interview.

Following are few of our table topic sessions by our very own creative genius and long time member Ian Su.

There is no instructor in a Toastmasters meeting. Instead, members evaluate one another’s presentations. This feedback process is a key part of the program’s success.

We also have a mentorship program which pairs a new member up with a senior member to get a great start on the Metro Speakers Toastmasters journey.
